    Bigger Switch and a bit more streamlined.

    I love it! Now as many know, this is NOT a Switch Pro. It has a bigger screen that's OLED. It makes the colors pop so much better and has a better kickstand and has more internal storage than the regular Switch did. Too bad they didn't fix Joy-Con drift... I've had mine for almost a year now and I am enjoying it. Though just my luck that they already announced a Switch 2...

    Great product. So far, I have no issues and have set up a fair amount of games. The screen size is very helpful as well.

    The perfect gift for a couple or family! We play this all the time and there are so many great games to buy for everyone. The picture is amazing and it’s very easy to use. We had the old version prior and the picture is way better on this one.

    Loved my day 1 Switch. Never had issues and was reluctant to buy this. Boy, am I glad I did. The OLED screen is making me go back and play games I beat ages ago, so I can enjoy the OLED view. Battery life is a HUGE improvement. I never had issues with drifting, so I am hoping that's the case here. If you play mostly docked, even that has an upgrade. Ethernet built in at the cost of a USB port, but whatever. But if you play strictly docked, then this might be fore you. The white matches my PS5. Love it love it love it.

    The screen on this new version of the Switch is gorgeous. The screen slightly larger than the old version and it can get so bright while maintaining black levels that are truely black. The kickstand is WAY better than the old one as it spans the width of the back of the switch. I'd highly recommend upgrading to his OLED Switch or just making it your first purchase even if it's a little more pricey.

    I have had this a year now and I am really glad I bought it. It has provided me with hours of relaxation and fun. It works well. I love the flexibility of switching from the handheld mode to the TV at will! The storage ran out quickly but a card can be inserted easily to help fix that!

    I've been playing this for about a month now and must say that it a slight improvement over the previous model Switch. The better screen is great for handheld, especially if it is being used with the stand and a pro controller. The stand is MUCH better than the original Switch. The old switch had the little stand on one side where this one is nearly the width of the whole unit. I've done some long play sessions on it without it getting too hot or lagging. It's definitely a good improvement over the older Switch I have.

    This was an amazing gift to my child. She absolutely loves it!!! This is a perfect game for long distance drive. It works really well, easy to set up and easy to store away. Quality is great. Can't wait to get more games for her.

    You get everything that makes the Switch great, along with the new and very improved kickstand, additional internal storage, and of course -- the new beautiful OLED display. I personally love OLED screens, and this one passes the test. It is a substantial upgrade from the older LED screen that didn't quite have as much brightness or contrast as we wanted. Ease of access is hindered for people upgrading from an older Switch in my opinion. The data migration process for taking data from an older Switch is an absolutely convoluted mess that doesn't need to be nearly as complicated as they make it. Even if you put everything on your SD card and swap it to your new Switch, it isn't that easy. Prepare to redownload ALL of your games. Also, for use in Animal Crossing, be very careful and follow the precise directions that involve downloading the Island Transfer Tool from the Nintendo digital store.

    It's a great upgrade if you own an original Switch from 2017-2018. I sold my original Switch for more than the original value since it was a HAC-001 moddable unit and bought this one. Kind of puts the Switch Lite in an awkward position considered this was designed with more of an emphasis in handheld with the screen. Nonetheless with the combination of the double battery life, beautiful screen, and wired dock, you're getting the best model right now. It is worth the extra $50 if you're a first time buyer.

    Such a wonderful console. The beauty of the switch is games on it look great despite running at 720p in handheld mode. Having an oled screen really brings out the best in nintendo’s animation style. This isn’t a must have but it is fantastic. if you already have a switch, this isn’t a successor and if you plan on only playing in TV mode, I’d say get the normal one and use an $10 Ethernet adapter if you need.

    This thing brought a part of my childhood back. I had been debating for a couple years weather or not I should get one and I finally did. Im very pleased with it. It has decent battery life and the rest of my family loves it too. Paired it up with the nintendo online + expansion and ive been able to play several of the older games i played as a kid. I highly reccomend the switch for anyone of every age its been a blast.
